Cooking Steps

Marinate onions
1
  • Before starting, preheat the oven to 450˚F. Wash and dry all produce.
  • Peel, then cut onion into 1/4-inch pieces.
  • To a large bowl, add vinegar, 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) sugar and 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil. Stir to mix.
  • Add a quarter of the onions. Stir to coat.
Cook tofu
2
  • Heat a large non-stick pan over high.
  • While pan heats, pat tofu dry with paper towels, then crumble into pea-sized pieces.
  • When hot, add 1 1/2  tbsp (3 tbsp) oil, tofu and remaining onions. Cook for 5-7 min, stirring often, until onions are tender and tofu is golden.
  • Remove from heat. Add Southwest Spice Blend and Tomato Sauce Base. Season with salt and pepper. Stir to coat.
Finish prep
3
  • While tofu cooks, cut tomato into 1/4-inch pieces.
  • Peel, pit, then cut avocado into 1/4-inch pieces.
  • Roughly chop cilantro.
  • Core, then thinly slice jalapeño removing seeds for less heat. (TIP: We suggest using gloves when prepping jalapeños.)
Bake chips and finish pico
4
  • On a parchment-lined baking sheet, arrange tortilla chips. Drizzle with 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil. Toss to coat.
  • Bake in the middle of the oven for 2-3 min, until warmed through.
  • While chips bake, add tomato, avocado, half the cilantro and half the jalapeño to the bowl with onions. (Tip: Like things spicy? Add all the jalapeño.) Season with salt and pepper. Stir to mix.
Assemble and finish nachos
5
  • Top with chips with tofu mixture.
  • Sprinkle cheese over top.
  • Return chips to the middle of the oven and bake for 4-6 min, until cheese has melted.
Finish and serve
6
  • Dollop pico over top, or serve on the side for scooping, if desired.
  • Drizzle chipotle sauce over top.
  • Sprinkle remaining cilantro over top.
  • Divide nachos between plates or serve directly on baking sheet, if desired.
